Watch: Mohammad Rizwan Fumes As 'Wristband' Costs Him His Wicket In Boxing Day Test
Pakistan wicketkeeper-batter Mohammad Rizwan was left frustrated as he was adjudged out in a rather controversial fashion during Day of the second Test against Australia in Melbourne. The incident happened in the 61st over of Pakistan's 317-run chase at the Melbourne Cricket Stadium on Friday. With Pakistan cruising at 219/5 and only 98 runs needed to level the series, Australia captain Pat Cummins bowled a short-pitched delivery which eluded Rizwan's bat. While the on-field umpire dismissed Australia's appeal for a possible caught behind, Cummins decided to take the third umpire's help.

Watch: Same Delivery, Same Result As Babar Azam Falls To An Unplayable Ripper
It was deja vu all over again for Pakistan batter Babar Azam as Australia pacer Josh Hazlewood sent him packing with a ripper on Day 4 of the ongoing Boxing Day Test at the Melbourne Cricket Ground on Friday. Hazlewood's inswinging delivery was similar to the one his captain and fellow pacer Pat Cummins bowled to get rid of Babar. After pitching, the ball nipped back sharply to rattle the stumps, with Babar, who was batting brilliantly on 41, pretty late to get into his strides. Babar's dismissal in the second innings was pretty similar to the one in the first innings.
